    Review Summary for 50 East 78 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 50 East 78 Street highlight its beautiful architecture and friendly, attentive doormen and neighbors as major positives. The building is generally clean, quiet, and well-maintained with good water pressure and pest control. However, some renters note issues with dated features like older AC units and frequent elevator breakdowns. Management and owner responsiveness receive mixed feedback; several tenants find management inflexible and criticize rent prices as above market value. While the super is praised for responsiveness, improvement in communication and tenant relations is advised. Overall, the building's charm and community are valued, though some operational and pricing concerns remain.
